Kidney Disease Symptoms

Creatinine is the product of creatine which is an important part in muscle. In normal condition, it is filtered by kidneys so the concentration of creatinine in blood keeps at a constant level. The normal value of creatinine is 0.7 to 1.3 mg/dL for men and 0.6 to 1.1 mg/dL for women. When the kidneys are unable to work efficiently, the creatinine will build up in our body, resulting in high creatinine levels in blood.
